It is possible but with the correct diet and a heavy demand on her from the pups, she should have enough milk. Make sure she is on a good name Puppy Food, not some generic cheap food. Make sure the pups nurse all they want off of her. If she is not cooperating then sit with her and make her lay on her side while the pups nurse. If you think she is not healthy, then take her to your Veterinarian for a check up. Make sure she gets lots of the Puppy Food and is healthy looking.
A female dog produces milk to feed its young ones.
No, the dog will stop producing milk when she is ready. You will need to start feeding the pups puppy food with warm water when shes ready to stop feeding her pups.
If the mother dog is not producing enough milk then the puppies need to be bottle fed. You can buy canned "Bitch's Milk" from most grocery stores and if not you can find it in your local Farm Supply/Feed Store(s) and/or Pet Store(s). As a last resort if you cannot find the the canned milk at those places call your Veterinarian and ask if they have/sell it. As a last resort you can order it through an online store.
It depends on whether that mother is pregnant. Usually if the female dog is not pregnant, then there is not much of a chance of it being able to get milk from it, with the fact that the dog would not have produced any milk, but on the other hand it will still be able to do other things to care for it.
You should contact your vet to see if he can administer something to the mother. Or you may just have to feed them your self. If so, you will need to get a substitution mother's milk from your vet or pet store. They have it at Walmart as well. Feed the pups every two hours or as recommended by your vet.
Yes. It's milk.
Like all mammals a mother dog feeds her young milk that she produces.
No, cats should not drink dog's milk as it does not provide the necessary nutrients for their health. Cats require specific nutrients found in their own mother's milk or specially formulated cat milk.
The puppies need to be pulled off the mother until the mastitis clears up - you will need to feed the puppies with canned formula. You'll also need to milk the mother regularly so she doesn't stop producing milk, as well as give her antibiotics to clear the mastitis up.
She is probably having a false pregnancy. My dog is going through one right now, but for some reason she is producing curdled milk out of one nipple..... :/ I would make a vet app. to make sure though.
No. Not nice for the mother dog though!
Well their mothers yes. But if you want to give them cow milk than it may not be good for them. But if your planning on giving them milk later on, then start when they are about 6weeks old because most dogs get diarrhea and some get sick. Therefore, its better to get them used to the milk early on.
